Founders’ Transition Amid Exponential Growth: Citypark Fitness Sees Shift in Leadership Dynamics as Steven Dick and Scott Agnew Redirect Focus to The Fitness Group Education

In the midst of an evolution marked by perplexity and a resurgence of energy, the co-founders of Citypark Fitness, Steven Dick and Scott Agnew, have unveiled a momentous decision to disengage from the daily operations of Citypark Fitness after a formidable eight-year tenure of stewardship.

This deliberate move is geared towards concentrating their efforts into nurturing The Fitness Group Education Limited, a distinctive institution dedicated to the holistic development of prospective personal trainers. Going beyond the confines of conventional fitness paradigms, this educational entity seeks to forge a new echelon of professionals with an acumen that transcends the ordinary.

Citypark Fitness, an eminently distinguished independent gym spanning an expansive 7,000 square feet, came into fruition in 2015 under the collaborative initiative of Steve, Scott, and Thomas Anderson. The physical locus of this thriving establishment is the illustrious Citypark building, ensconced in the heart of Dennistoun, Glasgow.

Despite the laurels garnered by Citypark, Agnew and Dick, their hearts weighed with both reverence and reluctance, have judiciously opted for a change in course. Reflecting on the journey, Steven Dick articulated, “From the inception of Citypark Fitness in 2015, a journey shared among Thomas, Scott, and myself, every juncture has been embraced with fervor. Even in the face of adversities cast by the pandemic, this juncture was harnessed as a platform for metamorphosis, as we ingeniously recalibrated our services towards the realm of intimate group training. This strategic shift bore fruit, etching a chapter of triumph within the narrative of Citypark Fitness. A narrative that persists and thrives, sculpting the lives of our patrons through specialised support.”

Citypark Fitness, now steered by the stewardship of Thomas Anderson, perseveres undeterred, poised to champion an innovative and resplendent approach to the realm of fitness within Glasgow. As Steven underscores the outlook for Citypark’s evolution, “Recent integration of a new gym manager infuses renewed vigor, propelling the streak of excellence onward. The annals of the past two years narrate an unbroken continuum of achievement, a continuum to be perpetuated under the tenacious guidance of Thomas, synergising with the acumen of Peter, our astute gym manager, and the entire collective force of Citypark Fitness. My unwavering support fortifies this progression.”

The seeds of The Fitness Group Education were sown in 2018, borne from the personal trials of Steven and Scott in the recruitment of personal trainers at Citypark Fitness. Rooted in the mission to disseminate their erudition, they aspired to arm aspiring personal trainers with proficiencies surpassing the threshold of conventional training credentials. Simultaneously, this pursuit aspired to elevate the standards of pedagogy in the expansive landscape of fitness. This genesis surpassed its Glasgow confines, extending its influence to strategic nodes across the United Kingdom, encompassing metropolises such as Manchester, Birmingham, Bristol, and London.

The present-day manifestation of The Fitness Group Education encompasses a global outreach, transcendently nurturing learners both within and beyond the United Kingdom. Central to this mission is the provision of avant-garde online fitness education, encompassing domains such as personal training and sports massage. The aegis of The Fitness Group Education extends in partnership with esteemed entities such as the Ministry of Defence, TRX, Strength and Conditioning Education, The PFA, My PT Hub, English League Education, and a confluence of other distinguished establishments.

Pioneering the cause to furnish fledgling personal trainers with a comprehensive foundation, the pursuit encompasses not only the conventional dimensions of health, fitness, and nutrition but delves into the subtler precincts of wellness. These encompass exigencies such as emergency first aid, pre and post-natal qualifications, mental health sensitivity, and the art of guiding youthful cohorts in the pursuit of physical activity.

Steven Dick amplifies, “The mantle of The Fitness Group Education is emblematic of a vanguard, one that beckons accessibility within the realm of education catering to personal trainers. In the nascent chapters of the industry, tomorrows’ torchbearers must be stewards of their own well-being, nurturing a confluence of health consciousness and entrepreneurial spirit within a panorama oversaturated with specialised fitness establishments and technological novelties.”

As Steven Dick and Scott Agnew embark on their recalibration, Citypark stands as an indelible testament to their legacy. Embracing an array of industry-defining features, including premier equipment by eminent gym brands, female-exclusive group sessions, and personalised mentorship, Citypark bears the imprimatur of The Fitness Group Education, heralding an era of boundless possibilities.

Steven concludes, “Within the embrace of The Fitness Group Education, an unceasing alliance with Citypark Fitness takes root, nurturing mutual growth and prospects. A tableau of brilliance awaits both these entities, an undulating canvas on which to inscribe an illustrious narrative.”
